vic perc abuse home remedies please help

[lisa0266]

Somehow in the past four years i have found myself addicted to vicodin, percocet, I dont do anything else  but each morning i need something to get through the day. I dont have any insurance, but I am ready to seek help, but if I can find a "home" remedy to help the withdrawals I will. If i don't have anything in the morning I am yawning all day, laying in bed, and dont even want to be around people in general. I work 72 hours a week and I have seen that I only go to work if i have pills to get me through the day. This makes me so sad but i didnt catch it before it was severe....for so long it was just fun. Well its not anymore, and I want myself to be happy without pills. Does anyone have a home remedy for the withdrawals? I dont want my life to depend on anything!!! It is now....please help!!!

I am on day 4 myself.  I am doing ok...but the first 48 hours were no joke.  The worst thing for me was the RLS and the general lack of energy.  Epsom salt baths are a miracle worker...so too is hydration.  I literally never stop drinking water; which includes Mineral water.  I have no appetite or motivation, but it is better than the alternative.  Also, like smoking ads...don't quit, quitting.  I have been "quitting" for 3 months now...going further each time.  Today is the first day I feel half normal and that I might just make it.  But I keep telling myself, I am soooo much closer than I was 6 months ago when I was popping 10-15 narcos a day.

God bless...stay strong...and be prepared

check out the thomas recipe and amino acid protocol, get gatorade, immodium, bananas and benadryl. plan on having the flu for about a week, take lots of hot baths, exercise when you can and eat little meals. there is an otc called hylands restful legs that does wonders for rls. post and keep posting, read other threads, stay with us, we are here to support and help you. know you can do this.

Yes.  There are a ton of home remedies on this site.  Keep reading.  There is something called the Thomas recipe but - pretty much, multivitamins, milk thistle, vitamin c, L-cysteine, garlic tablets, tylenol for the pain, gatorade, water and proteins (fish and chicken).  Immodium AD and Zyrtex for the sneezing.  Good luck my friend!
